Well this eagerly anticipated WC quali final is certainly intriguing. Wales caretaker manager, Rob Page, resting all his key players last night v Poland and consequently losing their Nations League match 2-1. I reckon Wales will win this final mainly because they are playing at home and they'll have had a good look at the Scotland semi-final debacle v Ukraine at Hampden Park last night. A lotta folk not knowing what to expect from this Ukraine team until they "showed up" last night. Now the Welsh players and coaching staff have a better idea of what to expect, how to play them and target some clear weaknesses in certain positions. IMO Scotland were never gonna win that final if they had managed to get there as this current team/line up not good enough and tactically inept. This match v Ukraine could well "go all the way" to a pk decider although I have a hunch that Gareth Bale will play a pivotal role in Wales qualifying for the first time since 1958 - a historic moment!
